Teaching portfolios are an opportunity to engage these critical questions and also provide space for documenting practice to demonstrate growth, pedagogical competence and excellence in teaching. A teaching portfolio is not only a requirement of the institution, but it is a crucial space for reflective practice and continuous engagement with practice. The workshop on developing a teaching portfolio is fully online and hands-on; it starts with exploring literature on reflective practice and professional learning then moves on to take participants through various processes on developing a teaching portfolio. Participants will draft their teaching philosophies and demonstrate how these philosophies translate into practice focused on student success.

There will be guidance offered by facilitators and peers. There is, however, an assumption that academics participating in this workshop have the basic scholarly understanding of curriculum, learning and teaching and assessment principles. The end-product of this workshop for each participant is a complete draft of a teaching portfolio.
